Te Arohanui Maori Culture Club (Inc.)







Welcome to Western Australia's longest running Incorporated Maori Culture Group




Our Kapa Haka Group

Started in July 1977, Te Arohanui Maori Culture Club has been running strong for many years. Currently consisting of approximately 15 performing members. Our group performs in and around the Perth metro area, performing for birthdays, weddings, and a range of other events.




About Us

Te Arohanui Maori Club was started in a suburban parking lot in Perth by a group of people hungry for learning and not wanting their children to lose their heritage. We are a non-profit organisation with the aim to one day be part of or establish a cultural community centre. Keeping our culture alive for our children and our children's children is a vital part of Te Arohanui and to keep the learning apart of our everyday lives will keep Te Arohanui alive. Our group consists of people from all parts of New Zealand and the world. We are not restricted to certain "Tribes". We welcome all with open arms.

! ! ! ANNOUNCEMENT ! ! !




Due to a lack of participation interest and the inability to recruit new members, Te Arohanui Maori Culture Club Inc. has been forced to take recess for 12 months. Unfortunately our once vibrant club has dwindled to a few steadfast families and the decision to take 12 months to recoup was made. We would like to thank everyone who has supported us over the past 30 years and hopefully after this break we can come back with more interest and most of all some new members to revitilise the club.
I will do my best to keep the calendar up to date with events happening here in Perth. Please keep emailing. Once again, Thank you all.




Kapahaka practice has changed to the following:
Wednesday Evenings at South Ballajurra Community Centre
Crn of Belfin and Hamlin Road/s in Ballajurra
